Filming has begun for Us, BBC One’s four-part drama adapted by David Nicholls from his hugely popular novel of the same name.
Tom Hollander (Baptiste, The Night Manager) will be joined by Saskia Reeves (Luther, Shetland), Sofie Gråbøl (The Killing, Fortitude), Tom Taylor (Doctor Foster, The Dark Tower), Iain De Caestecker (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, The Fades) and Thaddea Graham (Curfew, The Letter for the King), with casting by Sarah Crowe. It is produced by Drama Republic and Bandstand Productions.
Douglas Petersen (Tom Hollander) is blindsided when his wife Connie (Saskia Reeves) tells him that she’s not sure she wants to be married to him anymore. Agreeing to still go on their planned family grand tour of Europe, Douglas vows to win back the love of his wife and repair his troubled relationship with their son Albie (Tom Taylor).
Reflecting David Nicholls' signature mix of humour and heartbreak, Us brings the Petersens' poignant and often hilarious story to life, taking viewers with them on their once-in-a-lifetime journey through some of the most beautiful cities in the world.
David Nicholls says: “It’s a huge thrill to see the novel come to life, and with such a wonderful cast and production team. We want to make something funny, touching and beautiful, to really explore marriage and family life, all against this incredible backdrop.”
Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod say: “We are delighted to be working with Drama Republic and the great David Nicholls in bringing his beautiful novel to BBC One. The trials of the Petersens will strike a chord with many - a family tale for our times.”
Piers Wenger, Controller of BBC Drama, says: “We feel so honoured to be bringing David’s beautiful novel to BBC One and to have the brilliant Tom Hollander and Saskia Reeves playing the leading roles. We are thrilled to work with David and Drama Republic once again and also with Bandstand Productions on their debut drama for the BBC.”
Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn, Executive Producers for Drama Republic, say: “David Nicholls is a unique and rare talent who miraculously manages to intertwine profound emotion with full-on humour. This glorious adaptation has attracted an exceptional cast in Tom Hollander, Saskia Reeves and Sofie Gråbøl. We couldn’t be more excited to begin filming.”
Us is executive produced by Greg Brenman and Roanna Benn for Drama Republic, Tom Hollander and Hannah Pescod for Bandstand Productions, Jo McClellan for BBC One and David Nicholls. It is directed by Lisa Siwe (Temple, Modus) and distributed internationally by BBC Studios. Filming will take place in London, Amsterdam, Venice, Barcelona and Paris.
创意真不错，这个恐怖片并不“吓人”，但是感受到了现实生活中会遇到的恐惧。罗里背诗时分分钟穿越到低俗怪谈hhh
女主哈珀在乡间庄园里发生的故事
男人看着似乎各有不同，仔细看看其实都是一张面孔，男权社会代代相传，绵延不绝，只有主谋与帮凶
极为露骨，且非常的写实。希望姑娘们都看看，不要对感情有过多期待。除非你抽中头奖，地球男性3%（也不算少了）。那么你的婚姻在世界的“幸福”衡量中仅仅是一地鸡毛挣扎到老。低于这个忍耐红线的话，就是鸡飞狗跳人间惨剧。出轨、背叛、嫌弃、厌倦、争吵、丧偶育儿、衰老、折磨、度日如年、家暴、pua 、婚内qj 、平淡、冷暴力、悔恨、继续拖着疲惫不堪不忍直视的“生活”生存下去。生死往复，不多如此。这多彩的感情河流，我就不湿鞋了～bye (⁎⁍̴̛ᴗ⁍̴̛⁎)
本以为这次加兰会给我们玩出一点新花样，结果最后还是向我们重复了一遍《湮灭》中相似的“高概念”。但好在这次没有那么嗨，用女性主义议题去有力回击了这个男权为主的社会，用最简练明了的视听语言去展现了男权压迫下的女性生活，以及加兰对于这个议题最终的结论——让男的自生自灭。 这部电影从开篇的摄影和调调就摆明了这是一部属于A24的标准恐怖片，用文艺片的外壳包装了惊悚片的内核。罗利·金奈尔用一人分饰N角的演出hold住了千人一面的恐惧感，讲道理这就有够惊悚的了。但如果你是抱着传统恐怖片的期待去看的话恐怕你就要失望了。只能说这次加兰在继承前人优秀理念的同时也没有让自己的表达脱俗。二者的有机结合也让这部电影会成为今年的年度盘点名单里的一位。
①宗教，上帝造人伊始，造完亚当之后，抽了亚当的一根肋骨造了夏娃，在宗教里，女人就是男人的骨中骨，肉中肉，整个宗教系统都是歪的，所以女主不能在这儿获得救赎，神父那咸猪手也说明了问题，还有那个男女图腾雕像
男性导演拍恐男片总给人一种略显刻意的违和感
本片无疑是一部女性主义电影，写出了男性丑陋本性的普遍并将其具象化。男性总是竭尽千方百计地为了让自己占据道德高点而进行无耻又无理的诡辩，这个要点虽只是轻轻一点却入木三分。更可贵的是创作者利用了观众尤其是男性观众的生育恐惧而增强表达效果。
五个男人，分别出现在她的身边，每一个都呈现了男性的不同姿态
Dead husband, countryside landlord, naked stalker, the green man sculpture, then she went crazy…
代入一下现实生活针对女性的种种恶意和犯罪，这片分明是写实现实主义了。（被跟踪警察毫不在意、神父替男性施暴说话、熊孩子裸男和房东的种种不适行为在生活中都无处不在）身为女性就是不得不面对随时可能发生的“恐怖片”场景，run & fight
看前半段还想：这算什么恐怖片，画面还蛮清新唯美的呢。看到后半段裸男肛生子、裸男破腹产、以及各种身体部位的套娃……看得人都麻木了，回想起来还是最初窗边的裸男最恐怖，像车后备箱的炸弹不知什么时候引爆。
不要相信屁话拿好武器保护自己ಠ_ಠ……ps 男男套娃着实有点cult了……
拍得太棒了，这部“恐男”巅峰让纯爷们儿看了都赞叹不已！“男人没一个好东西”“男人就是女人的噩梦”，全片最讽刺的…还有那个口口声声支持女主要和她一起弄坏男人的闺蜜，是挺着大肚子的，拍案叫绝！
哎 又恶心又吓人， 看了只会对男人更加厌恶… 更不想找男友了
这部电影的出现后，复古影像正式作为一种惯用风格成为回顾我们这个年代的标签；我对它依然拥有这样陈旧的观点：与其拍电影，不如去写一篇檄文……我心中的电影无需解读便能带来直接的触动，而不是费劲思考每一个设计的用意……导演技术的发展不是制造谜题，而是解开谜题……
用一个恐怖寓言拍出了生活中遭遇的隐形暴力，和时刻都在发生的道德绑架、精神控制。他们包装成世俗、习惯和善意，多少人面对时都无法说出一句“滚开”。不只是性别，更是不对等关系中的弱者的困境；只是这样的关系中女性受害者很多。男导演有这样的观察很厉害。
太多暗喻，太多要表达的东西了，成品太乱、太夸张，故作高深，其实要讲的谁都明白，有装b的嫌疑
【3.5】A24出品的又一部恐怖片
Mind blowing. 希望所有女性拥有女主面对伤痛自我疗愈的能力和面对压迫坚决反击的勇气。自然的不代表是合理的，应当承受的。
